DINOSAURS will stalk the Midlands once more as Walking with Dinosaurs – The Arena Spectacular comes to the NIA, in Birmingham, from 10 – 14 April 2013.

The production includes dinosaurs of unprecedented size and quality, which will guarantee to thrill and educate a brand new generation of budding palaeontologists, as pre-historic beasts of unmatched realism roam the stage and capture the imaginations of young and old alike. Watch the story of their 200 million year domination unfold as you see them walk, hear them roar and come face to face as they fight for survival and supremacy. From the ripple of their skin to the glint in their eye, you will know the dinosaurs really have returned!

Walking with Dinosaurs - The Arena Spectacular is brought to the U.K. by Global Creatures, headed by CEO Carmen Pavlovic, in association with BBC Worldwide.

Pavlovic said, “The BBC Series was a brilliant blend of special effects, escapism, excitement and information. In order to bring this TV event into the third dimension on stage with life-size dinosaurs, we created a £12.5 million spectacle so immense that it can only fit into arenas."

Walking with Dinosaurs has been seen by over 7m people in a staggering 206 cities across the world. Bringing to life 20 to-scale dinosaurs night after night is a technological feat is of epic proportions.

Tickets will be on sale from 9am on Friday 27 April priced at £45, £35 & £25 (plus booking and transaction fees). They are available from The Ticket Factory: www.theticketfactory.com or 0844 338 8000.
